Nick Diaz, keeping it real...loves the Pot. Hates Shamrock

Nick Diaz does not have a fake bone in his body.

He does not always make the smartest decisions and sometimes his indiscretion can harm his profession. However...no one can ever question if he is real or not. He is a fighter...a fighter that loves to smoke pot.

As reported in the LA TIMES, he not only feels "more consistent" as a cannabis user but he has a way to beat the test. ppsssst! Nick! Inside voice! INSIDE VOICE!

He is clearly not the only fighter using the herb. He is just the only fighter telling the world he smokes it "on the reg" as Kenny Powers would say and tells the commission that he can beat their drug test.

You may not like Nick Diaz...however, in a world of fake people you have to respect his honesty.

Pass it over here Nick...

Frank Shamrock is a role model

As MMAJUNKIE.COM reported:

Frank Shamrock is looking to cast a crew of deserving fighters into a new reality show project. The March 21 Team Shamrock tryouts will provide a chance for a group of young fighters to become overnight stars. "March 21 we've got a massive tryout coming up," Shamrock said. "We've got guys coming in from all over the world. We're also filming it and producing a reality show in conjunction with it."

Shamrock said the winner of the tryouts, being held at the San Jose Athletic Club in San Jose, Calif., will get a chance to train with the former UFC and Strikeforce champion and be the subject of a new reality show.

OK...not a terrible idea. It's not original but it's not terrible. No one can blame him for being an enthusiastic if opportunistic entrepreneur. No, but you can blame him for saying something like:

"We're looking to take on guys and guide them professionally because there's a huge lack of professional guidance in the industry," Shamrock said. "And we're looking for eight guys to really become our talent and to follow them around as they go through this journey."

So...the problem is that there is a lack of professional guidance in the indusrty and the solution is...Frank Shamrock?

Let's be open and honest...he has a long list of bad decisions, a super-cheesy-game-show-host persona and a 2-2 record in the last 3 years...right, any young fighter would certainly gain from his professional guidance. Please.

Having said all of that...I am going watch that show and so are you.
